Why this pick
Another tightly paced Liam Neeson thriller from Unknown’s director, built around an ordinary man forced through a high-pressure conspiracy with shifting loyalties and brisk, contained suspense.
Why this pick
Matches Unknown’s unnerving identity-and-memory uncertainty: a desperate husband follows a fractured chain of evidence while the film keeps reality, institutions, and perception deliberately unstable.
Why this pick
A grounded, propulsive wrong-person nightmare with a devoted husband navigating bureaucracy, hidden information, and escalating danger rather than relying on action spectacle alone.
Why this pick
Offers European city elegance, romantic uncertainty, pursuit, and concealed identities, with a polished Berlin-like travel-thriller atmosphere and steadily unfolding intrigue.
Why this pick
Its cool, controlled thriller style and carefully rationed information create the same pleasure of watching seemingly reliable circumstances become increasingly suspect.
Finding the atmosphere, tension and little details that made this one stay with you.

01 / THE STORY
Dr. Martin Harris and his wife Liz arrive in Berlin for a biotechnology summit. At their hotel, as Liz goes to check in, Harris realizes he left his briefcase at the airport and takes a taxi to retrieve it (without telling Liz). The taxi is involved in an accident and crashes into the Spree, knocking him unconscious. The driver rescues him but flees the scene. Harris regains consciousness at a hospital and learns he has been in a coma for four days.
